Clinical Trials for EGFR-Mutant Lung Cancers

Short placeholder heading

The Chen-Huang Center for EGFR-Mutant Lung Cancers aims to advance care and research of EGFR-mutant lung cancer with clinical trials of new and novel therapies supported by lab research and studies of cancer genetics.

Our trials include studies for patients with newly diagnosed EGFR-mutant lung cancer and patients whose cancer has advanced on current therapy, in addition to studies of cancer genetics.

A patient must meet certain requirements to participate in a clinical trial. Your doctor or another member of your health care team is the best resource for knowing your treatment options and eligibility.
